DID YOU READ

Welcome to The Automat: Undeclared

Hello Morning People! Want a great way to wake up in the early hours? No, not a bacon kale smoothie, even though that sounds delicious. Instead start your day right with Undeclared at 5:30 a.m. ET on The Automat. In the somewhat sequel to Freaks and Geeks, producer with the mostest, Judd Apatow, takes his gimlet eye and trains it squarely on the college experience.

We start day one, when Steven Karp (Jay Baruchel) leaves home and enters the freshman class at University of North Eastern California. Unfortunately for Steven’s reputation, his dad (Loudon Wainwright III) comes along too. Luckily his dorm mates are a pretty chill bunch of dudes and Steven settles in to college life even developing a crush on the girl across the hall, Lizzie (Carla Gallo). Unfortunately, she has a boyfriend back home (Jason Segel), but this doesn’t stop Steven’s new roommates, Lloyd (Charlie Hunnam), Marshall (Timm Sharp), and Ron (Seth Rogen) from trying to convince him to go for it. The show is just the right mix of funny and poignant, sweet and salty, just the way breakfast should be.

Watch guest star Amy Poehler as the head R.A. with an eye for fresh(men) meat. If you don’t know who she is, you don’t watch nearly enough television:

Your Portlandia Personality Test

Carrie and Fred understand that although we have so much in common, we’re each so beautifully unique and different. To help us navigate those differences, Portlandia has found an easy and honest way to embrace our special selves in the form of a progressive new traffic system: a specific lane for every kind of driver. It’s all in honor of the show’s 8th and final season, and it’s all presented by Subaru.

Ready to find out who you really are? Match your personality to a lane and hop on the expressway to self-understanding.

Lane 10: Trucks Piled With Junk

Your junk is falling out of your trunk. Shake a tail light, people — this lane is for you.

Lane 33: Twins

You’re like a Gemini, but waaaay more pedestrian. Maybe you and a friend just wear the same outfits a lot. Who cares, it’s just twinning enough to make you feel special.

Lane 27: Broken Windows

Bad luck follows you around and everyone knows it. Your proverbial seat is always damp from proverbial rain. Is this the universe telling you to swallow your pride? Yes.

Lane 69: Filthy Cars

You’re all about convenience. Getting your car washed while you drive is a no-brainer.

Lane 43: Newly Divorced Singles

It’s been a while since you’ve driven alone, and you don’t know the rules of the road anymore. What’s too fast? What’s too slow? Are you sending the right signals? Don’t worry, the breakdown lane is nearby if you need it.

Still can’t find a lane to match your personality? Check out all the videos here. And see the final season of Portlandia this spring on IFC.

Last-Minute Holiday Gift Guide

It’s the final countdown to Christmas and thanks to IFC’s movie marathon all Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, you can revel in classic ’80s films AND find inspiration for your last-minute gifts. Here are our recommendations, if you need a head start:

Musical Instrument

Great analog entertainment substitute when you refuse to give your kid the Nintendo Switch they’ve been drooling over.

Breakfast In Bed

Any significant other or child would appreciate these Uncle Buck-approved flapjacks. Just make sure you’re not stuck on clean up duty.

Cocktail Supplies

You’ll need them to get through the holidays.

Dance Lessons

So you can learn to shake-shake-shake (unless you know ghosts willing to lend a hand).

Comfy Clothes

With all the holiday meals, there may be some…embigenning.

Get even more great inspiration all Christmas Eve and Day on IFC, and remember…

Celebrating Portlandia One Sketch at a Time

Most people measure time in minutes, hours, days, years…At IFC, we measure it in sketches. And nothing takes us way (waaaaaay) back like Portlandia sketches. Yes, there’s a Portlandia milepost from every season that changed the way we think, behave, and pickle things. In honor of Portlandia’s 8th and final season, Subaru presents a few of our favorites.
